Family GRYLLACRIDIDAE

This page contains pictures and information about Pale-brown Leaf-rolling Crickets that
we found in the Brisbane area, Queensland, Australia.

Nymph, body length 30mm

We found these
Leaf-rolling Crickets a few time in Karawatha Forest. They were all hiding in
their Rolled-leaf retreat during the day. The insects in those photos could
be an adult male or a nymph.

We open the rolled-leaf a bit to check what it was. The nymph came out
because of our disturbed and we took the above photos. From the reference
information,
Leaf-rolling Cricket nymphs are more easy to be encountered because they are
in much higher number than adults.
